Drive Cycle Recommendations
- Most OBD II monitors will complete more readily using a steady foot driving style during cruise or acceleration modes. Operating the throttle in a smooth fashion will minimize the time required for monitor completion.
- Fuel tank level should be between 1/2 and 3/4 fill with 3/4 fill being the most desirable.
- The evaporative monitor can only operate during the first 30 minutes of engine operation. When executing the procedure for this monitor, stay in part throttle mode and drive in a smooth fashion to minimize fuel slosh.
